About me

Sometimes life presents challenges we don’t feel equipped to face alone. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, a difficult life transition, or the lingering effects of painful experiences from the past. Or you may find that communication with your partner keeps breaking down, leaving both of you feeling hurt, misunderstood, or disconnected. When things feel stuck or heavy, it can be hard to know how to move forward.

My approach to therapy is warm, authentic, person-centered, & trauma-informed. I am EMDR-trained & use a variety of modalities based on your personal needs & goals. I also work with couples using the Gottman Method, an evidence-based approach that helps partners improve communication, deepen emotional connection, & navigate conflict in healthier ways.

Whether you are seeking individual counseling or couples therapy, you’ve taken an important first step by looking for a therapist. If you’re ready to take the next step, reach out via phone, text, or email today to schedule a free consultation. Let’s meet and figure out a plan to help you start moving forward again!
